The Power V2 Motor is known for its cool, quiet power that won’t spook the fish and thanks to the Digital Maximizer the motor runs even cooler, longer, and more efficiently than before. In addition, the Power V2 Motor features Minn Kota’s indestructible composite shaft–the only shaft on the market that is guaranteed not to break, kink, or corrode for life.

i-Pilot:

The revolutionary i-Pilot wireless trolling system uses GPS technology to control and steer your boat for you so that you can focus on fishing. With multiple intelligent functions, i-Pilot allows you to: record and lock-in on up to three fishing locations with Spot-Lock; record, store, and retrace productive trolling paths with Record a Track; use Advanced AutoPilot to take full command of speed and steering with GPS precision; control the boat by remote with CoPilot; and make 1/10 mile-per-hour speed adjustments with Cruise Control for unparalleled bait presentation. Easy to install, the i-Pilot replaces the top of your motor head. Once you activate the remote you’re ready to fish. The entirely wireless i-Pilot system can be controlled with the remote control from anywhere on deck, freeing you up to fish from anywhere on the boat while i-Pilot uses GPS accuracy to steer the boat for you. The i-Pilot’s remote features an integrated, backlit LCD screen that is easy to read and delivers instant feedback on active functions, speed, prop on/off status, battery power, and GPS signal strength. The remote is entirely encased in a watertight, fully gasketed casing that floats and comes with a convenient lanyard.

Digital Maximizer:

The Digital Maximizer optimizes draw to extend battery life and reduce damaging heat–helping you stay on the water up to five time longer on a single charge. By regulating power, the Digital Maximizer delivers the precise amount of power needed at any speed with rapid on/off switching from the battery connection to control speed more efficiently than speed coils can. If ‘on’ time is longer compared to ‘off,’ the motor receives more power. If ‘off’ time is longer, the motor gets less power. Since there is minimal power lost to accomplish this, the overall motor is very efficient.

With variable speed control, the Digital Maximizer allows for proper speeds to be set and maintained while trolling lures for proper presentation. Fine-tuned speed adjustments and virtual speed adjustments allow the user to control boat speed more effectively in changing environments.

Deploy-Assist Lever:

The deploy-assist lever puts you in motion and in pursuit of fish quickly and easily. Depress the lever to deploy the motor and you’re ready to go. When it’s time to move, it stows easily and securely–ready for action whenever you are.

Ergonomically Designed Foot Pedal:

Control speed, steering, and momentary and constant on/off with PowerDrive V2’s foot pedal. It features the industry’s highest IP68 waterproof rating, comes with an 18-foot cord, and is backed by a 2-year warranty.

Indestructible Composite Shaft:

Guaranteed for life, the ultra-high-yield Minn Toka composite shaft is stronger than steel. It flexes on impact and won’t break, kink, or corrode.

Cool, Quiet Power:

No motor runs cooler or more quietly than a Minn Kota does. The Minn Kota is constructed with extra large windings and commutators to dissipate heat, resulting in cooler operation, extended battery power, and longer motor life. Minn Kota’s unique bearing system reduces friction to cut fish-spooking noise–making the motor so quiet, they’ll never hear you coming.

About Minn Kota:

With over 75 years of innovation and power on the water, Minn Kota Motors has been delivering some of the best-built trolling motors in the world for three quarters of a century. Beginning in 1934 in Fargo, North Dakota, Minn Kota began with Mr. O. G. Schmidt’s invention of the trolling motor. Because of its proximity to the MINNesota–North DaKOTA border, The Minn Kota Manufacturing Company name was born. Since its founding, Minn Kota has led the way in product innovation and cutting-edge technology with a long list of ‘firsts’ that include: first electric gear-driven motor (1934); first electric motor with reverse switch (1965); first built-in electronic/variable speed control (1986); first computer-controlled motor, first self-steering unit (AutoPilot) (1991); first fully automatic trolling motor (Genesis) (1999); and first DualBeam integrated transducer – 83kHz/200kHz with temperature sensing (Universal Sonar 2) (2007) among numerous other innovations in its 75 years of business.
